I agree, when my ME Super crapped out last year, I bought a ZX-M. It was a
good choice, although I must add that I have been transitioning to A series
lenses. The display in the viewfinder is a little harder to see, IMO, but
otherwise I have been happy. Dan

Well, if you don't mind manual focus,
there's the ZX-M. With the advanced features
of the other bodies not usable with "M"-class
lenses, this would give you the most value.
Unless, of course, you're looking to go auto-focus.
Then the 5n with its spot meter would be a preferred
choice.
